Ontario International Education Opportunity Scholarship
June 18, 2008
Ontario International Education Opportunity Scholarship
The Ontario International Education Opportunity Scholarship (OIEOS) is designed both to generate interest in international opportunities and to provide students with financial support that allows them to study abroad and thus expand their knowledge and experience.
Note, however, that if you’re participating in a Government–of-Ontario-sponsored exchange program like the Ontario-Baden Württemberg and Ontario Rhône-Alpes, you cannot apply for the OIEOS.
The scholarship is awarded on a combination of financial need and academic merit, with special consideration given to Aboriginal students, Francophone students and students with disabilities. It also complements the Student Mobility Scholarship (SMS). Students must be participating in a university-approved, travel-abroad program for either one or two sessions.
Eligibility requirements
- You must be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident of Canada (landed immigrant) or have protected-person status.
- You must live in Ontario according to the OSAP definition*.
- You must be enrolled in a full-time diploma, undergraduate or graduate program and must be in good academic standing.
- You must demonstrate financial need.
- To be able to apply as a member of a designated group and be given special consideration, you have to meet the following criteria:
- Aboriginal applicants: Identify yourself as such.
- Francophone applicants: Be participating in an international opportunity in a French-speaking nation or in an international opportunity taking place primarily in French
- Students with disabilities: Be registered at the Access Service.
* You are considered to be an Ontario resident if:
- you have always lived in Ontario;
- Ontario is the last province you lived in for 12 consecutive months without being a full-time postsecondary student;
- your spouse has always lived in Ontario;
- Ontario is the last province your spouse lived in for 12 consecutive months without being a full-time postsecondary student;
- Ontario is the last province your parent(s), step-parent(s), legal guardian(s) or official sponsor(s) has lived in for at least 12 consecutive months;
- You now live in Ontario AND you and your parents or spouse, if applicable, have lived in Canada for fewer than 12 months.

Dear,
Let me introduce you myself first. My name is Birhanu Desalegn Mihretie who graduated from Jimma University Faculty of law, Ethiopia in LL.B (first degree in law) on 05 July 2007 with 3.18 cumulative average points. Now I am working & giving the public service in the Ministry of Transport & Communications as a legal expert starting from December 11 2007 to date. My responsibilities among others is; drafting laws & contract documents, giving consultancy service to the ministry works, representing the ministry when it is sued & sues,& conducting various legal researches concerning the institution. To deliver & perform my responsibility fully to the rate that my country expected & to participate in the development endeavors of my country by making myself part of the solution I need further education. Hence it is my firm motive to study my LL.M (second degree in law).
Though I am interested & able to learn I can’t do this because of my incapacity to pay for the program as I am from Ethiopia which is one from the least developed countries. As a result of this I am forced to turn my face to the international scholarship programs both for my learning as well as living expenses. So I want yours Scholarship Administrator consideration to that effect by stretching its hands to the question I posed. . So, please if you can, inform me the requirements or eligibility criteria’s for such scholarship that I have requested, dates when to be opened for application, and any tasks that I am expected to fulfill to be eligible for it. If you can again I want you to give me any constructive advice as a brother personally on how to proceed to get international scholarship on LL.M (second degree in law) program even by giving the website that I can proceed for.
I have a great motive to up grade my self & to function well fully to the expected rate of my country.
Yours,
Applicant Birhanu Desalegn Mihretie

Please, I am a post high school student who’s looking for admission into a Canadian university, preferably in Ontario, and needed to be sponsored on scholarship because I do not have financial means to study abroad.
If I can get assistance to gain admission into any college or university in Canada, I will be highly grateful.
I wish to study medicine and surgery or any related courses. But if these are not available I will accept to go for journalism.
Thanks.
